A LIGHT ATMOSPHERE. ,
Why Smoke "Beats Down" When It
t-eaves a Chimney.
"It's getting ready for a storm. See
how the smoke beats down just as
soon as it comes out of the chimney?
That's because the air is so heavy it
pushes the smoke down before it has
time to rise."
One often hears this stated as fact
concerning that most generally talked
of subject on earth, the weather. The
speaker was probably right under
those conditions in prophesying a
storm, but he was scarcely right in
assigning as a reason that "the air is
so heavy it pushes the smoke down."
Nearly everybody knows it is easier
to swim in salt water than in fresh
water. As salt water is heavier than
fresh water it is evident that the heav
ier the liquid the greater the buoyant
force. ,
The atmosphere exerts a buoyant
force upon the smoke from chimneys
in exactly the same way 'that water
exerts a buoyant force upon a swim
mer. Therefore when the smoke "beats
down" as soon as it leaves a chimney
it must be concluded that the buoyant
force exerted upon it is relatively
small and that the air is not heavy,
but light.
A light atmosphere or; rather, a
sudden lessening of the pressure of
the atmosphere generally, takes place
before a storm. Therefore' the smoke
from chimneys, if observed intelligent
ly, furnishes a pretty' good weather
indicator. Chicago Record-Herald.

SOME FACTS ABOUT THE STATE THAT NEBRASKANS
SHOULD SCATTER BROADCAST OVER THE WORLD
Very few people have any idea of
the productivity of Nebraska. They
bave some comprehension of the gold
output of the nation and of the sev
eral states. They think of the copper
output as sometliiug wonderful. They
think of the tobacco crop as one of
the nation 'h great resources. Yet they
utterly fail to realize that Nebraska
produces in grains and grasses more
wealth than the gold mines, the copper
mines or the tobacco plantations.
Wonderful stories have, been told of
the Alaskan mines, and thousands have
been lured to the mountains of the west
and the frozen wastes of Alaska by
the glitter of the yellow metal. But
in fViA J.nrn p.rnn nf Nphrnakn
was worth $5,000,000 more than all the
gold mined during the same year in
the entire Unite? States, including
Alaska and the Philippines.
' We have heard about sugar and its
protection until we aVe apt to imagine
that the sugar crop of the United
States is something magnificent in its
proportions. But the 1909 wheat crop in
Nebraska was worth $3,700,000 more
thun the entire sugar production of the
United States during the same year.
Texas is a great state, and it takes
the lead in cotton production. We have
beard a great deal about "King Cot
ton," but the 1909 oats crop in Nebras
ka was worth $4,500,000 more than the
1909 cotton crop of Texas.
Kentucky is the greatest tobacco pro
ducing state iu the Union, and we are apt
to believe it means more to Kentucky
than any grain crop means to Nebraska.
But the 1909 egg crop in Nebraska was
worth $500,000 more than the 1909
crop of Kentucky tobacco.
Rockefeller acquired his wealth from
petroleum, and we are apt to imagine
that the crude petroleum product is
something far surpassing the entire
product of Nebraska's fields and stock
yards. Not so! In 1909 the Nebraska
live stock product was worth $9,000,000
more than the total crude petroleum
product of the United States for the
same year.
Illinois is one of the great coal pro
ducing states of Che Union, and coal
is one of the boasted products of the
Sucker state. But Nebraska wild and
tame hay in 1909 was worth $14,000,
000 more than the 1909 output of Illi
nois coal.
Nebraska butter in 1909 was worth
$3,000,000 . more than the total gold
and silver output of Colorado's mines
for the same year.
Nebraska 's 1909 corn crop was worth
$23,000,000 more than the Nation's to
bacco crop for the same year.
Nebraska live stock, cereals, grasses,
butter, eggs, fruit and poultry in 1909
was worth as much as the Nation's
output of bituminous coal, save the
output of Illinois, mentioned above.
The 1909 potatoes of Nebraska were
worth $1,800,000 more than the 1909
output of Arizona's gold and silver
mines.
Nevada is a great mining state, but
her 1909 output of gold and silver was
worth $1,000,000 less than Nebraska's
1909 crop of alfalfa. ;
Nebraska's total addition to the ma
terial wealth of the i ation, in the
shape 'of live stock, dairy products,
poultry, eggs and manufactured goods
was worth $98,000,000 more than the
total cotton crop of the Nation.
We hear much of the iron and steel
industry, but Nebraska beef and pork
in 1909 was worth $45,000,000 more
than the product of iron ore of the na
tion, valued at the mines.
Nebraska 's 1909 wild hay crop was
worth $9,000,000 more than the 1909
output of Alaska's gold mines.
Isn't is a wonderful state! And isn't
it our duty to spread a knowledge of
it abroad to the land hungry and in
dustrious peoples of the earth?
"Massachusetts, there she stands!"
exclaimed Daniel AVebster in his fa
mous Dartmouth college speech. Cor
rect there she stands. And there she
will have to stand until she pays back
to the school children of Nebraska the
$1,000,000 she borrowed from them..
Great are the steel rail mills of
Pennsylvania but the eggs laid by
Nebraska hens in 1909 would, if laid
end to end in a double dow, reach three
times as far as all the steel rails rolled
in Pennsylvania mills during the same
year.
Loaded into standard freight cars the
agricultural, live stock and dairy prod
ucts of Nebraska would make a train
twice as long as all the new railroads
built in the United States in 1909 and
there were approximately 5,000 miles
of new railroad built in that year.-
One of the youngest, Nebraska is
also one of the greatest states in the
Union. Let us all work together for
the upbuilding of Nebraska, and one
way to accomplish the best results is
to spread abroad the real facts about
this beloved state of ours.

, :i The Tricky Fox. ,
A gentleman while hunting near a
river one winter day saw a fox run
out on the Ice and make at full speed
for an opening In the ice where the
rushing water of the river could be
plainly seen from the bank, says the
Scotsman. , At the edge be stopped,
turned, followed his tracks buck to the
bank and then rap some distance down
the stream and sat there. Soon a dog
came crashing out of the woods,' bay
ing finely, hot on the fox's trail. Now.
dogs when on a chase of this kind
trust almost entirely to their noses.
This one was no exception. He ran
along the Ice. head down, and when
he reached the hole be could not stop,
but plunged into the water and disap
peared forever. Then the fox trotted
away with every sign of satisfaction.
